2010 MERCEDES-BENZ GLK350 Complaints

TAKATA RECALL IT'S BEEN MORE THAN A YEAR SINCE THE RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED BUT MY DEALER IS STILL UNABLE TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. THEY TELL ME THAT THERE IS STILL NO REPAIR AVAILABLE.

"TAKATA RECALL" THERE ARE STILL NO REMEDY FOR THIS HAZARDOUS RECALL ON MY CAR. I AM AND FEEL VERY SCARED AND WORRIED ABOUT MY SAFETY AND THAT I COULD HAVE A SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. I DO NOT WANT THE CAR BUT CAN'T SELL IT BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY HAVE OTHER ALTERNATIVES AND/OR OPTIONS. PLEASE HELP.

WE WERE TOLD THAT WE WOULD BE CONTACTED BY THE MANUFACTURER TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE AIR BAGS. TO DATE WE HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT REMEDYING THIS PROBLEM. IT'S DISHEARTENING TO KNOW THAT OTHERS HAVE ALSO NOT BEEN CONTACTED TO SOLVE A LIFE THREATENING PROBLEM FOR THE CONSUMER BASE OF THESE VEHICLES.

THERE IS A VERY STRONG FUEL ODOR COMING FROM REAR LEFT PASSENGER TIRE AREA WHEN TANK GETS COMPLETELY WITH GAS. I NOTICED THE SMELL AFTER LEAVING THE GAS STATION AND BRINGING THE CAR HOME TO PARK IT IN MY GARAGE.THE GAS SMELL IS SO STRONG, IT LEAKS INTO THE HOUSE (VIA ATTACHED GARAGE). INITIALLY I ASSUMED THAT I MUST HAVE JUST SPILLED A LITTLE GAS WHILE PUMPING IT. HOWEVER, THE SECOND TIME I WENT TO FILL THE CAR UP THE SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED. TO DATE WE HAVE NO REMEDY FOR THIS PROBLEM. AGAIN, THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE SO FAR.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 MERCEDES-BENZ GLK350. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V081000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART FOR THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT CALLED MERCEDES-BENZ OF CALDWELL (1230 BLOOMFIELD AVENUE, FAIRFIELD, NJ 07004; 973-227-3600), BUT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO REMEDY THE RECALL DUE TO NOT RECEIVING AIR BAGS FROM TAKATA. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE. *BF UPDATED 8/9/18*JB

TAKATA INFLATORS CALLED DEALER, POHANKA MERCEDES BENZ OF SALISBURY, AND THEY SAID PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE AND WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL 2018. HOW DO I KNOW WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE?

TAKATA RECALL MY DEALERSHIP STATES THAT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR MY MAKE AND MODEL AND THAT THEY CANNOT REPAIR MY VEHICLE.

I RECEIVED NOTIFICATIONS OF THE TAKATA RECALL FOR THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG OVER A YEAR AGO. IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR NOW AND STILL NO WORD ON REPAIRS NEEDED. I HAVE BEEN IN CONSTANT CONTACT WITH THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHO DON'T HAVE A REPAIR STATUS FOR ME. JUST RECENTLY RECEIVED A LETTER FROM TK HOLDINGS INC. TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THIS IS MY ONLY VEHICLE AND I DRIVE IN CONSTANT FEAR THAT SOMEONE MAY HIT MY CAR FOR THESE AIRBAGS NOT TO PERFORM LIKE THEY ARE SUPPOSED.
